STATION

STATION gives the names of the stations for which this group of
setup parameters applies. SCHED deals with multiple stations by
expanding the input group out into a separate group for each
station specified. This allows the defaults picked up later, for
example from the frequency catalog, to be station
dependent. Therefore, if only using very generic inputs, one can
lump the stations together even if their final parameters are
different.

There are two defaults allowed, VLBA and ' ' (or none
specified). If no stations are specified, the program goes through
the schedule and finds all stations that are in scans that request
that setup file and that have not been specified in other groups
within the setup file. Those stations (just VLBA) for any VLBA
stations) are added to the setup station list.

Later, the program looks for a perfect match to the station. If it
finds one, it uses that setup group. If not, it checks whether the
station is a VLBA station (first 4 characters in the station name are
VLBA) and whether there was a station=vlba specified. If
so, SCHED uses the parameters from the vlba group.

The old station=default option has been removed.

Note that you cannot specify no stations for one setup group and some
specific ones for another within the same file and expect anything
reasonable to happen.
